Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper caught six of his nine targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in a 30-22 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round Saturday, Jan. 12.

Huddle Up: After providing a major spark to the Dallas offense after coming aboard, Cooper seems destined to be the focal point of the passing attack for the Cowboys in 2019 and a WR2 for fantasy owners.

Posted: 1/5/2019 8:40pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper caught seven of his nine targets for 106 yards in a 24-22 win over the Seattle Seahawks in the wild-card round Saturday, Jan. 5.

Huddle Up: Cooper ended the regular season with three quiet games in a row, but he was back to making big plays in the Cowboys' playoff opener. He has WR1 potential for playoff contests as the clear No. 1 option in the Dallas passing attack.

Posted: 12/30/2018 5:03pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper finished with five receptions for 31 yards on 11 targets in Week 17 against the New York Giants.

Huddle Up: It wasn't a great fantasy performance, but it was a rather meaningless game. He'll be a highly coveted receiver for those in postseason fantasy leagues after his strong finish to the season.

Posted: 12/23/2018 5:30pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper posted four grabs for just 20 yards on five targets in Week 16 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Huddle Up: It was a bitter pill for fantasy owners hoping the good times would roll in what was the championship week for most. He'll look to finish up strong on the road in Week 17 against the Giants before the team's home wild-card game the following weekend.

Posted: 12/21/2018 6:42pm ET

Huddle Up: Cooper is coming off his worst game as a Cowboy, but facing one of the friendliest matchups possible, he should vault right back into WR2 territory.

Posted: 12/16/2018 5:19pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper caught four of his seven passes for 32 yards and added an 11-yard run in a 23-0 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15.

Huddle Up: After a monster performance against the Eagles, Cooper had arguably his worst performance since joining the Cowboys. On the plus side, he has a golden opportunity to rebound against Tampa Bay in Week 16.

Posted: 12/9/2018 7:31pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper post 10 catches for 217 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winning score on a deflection in overtime, in the Week 14 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. In six games with the Cowboys he has 34 grabs, 642 yards and six scores after just 22 catches, 280 yards and one touchdown in the first six games with Oakland.

Huddle Up: Cooper looks rejuvenated playing in Dallas with Dak Prescott after losing a little of his luster in Oakland. Fantasy owners are riding the former Alabama star to big points at the most important time of the season.

Posted: 11/29/2018 8:40pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper all eight of his targets for 75 yards in a 13-10 win over the New Orleans Saints in Week 13. He also lost a fumble.

Huddle Up: The trade is working out nicely for both Cooper and the Cowboys. Dallas is taking command of its division, and Cooper looks like a weekly WR2 candidate.

Posted: 11/24/2018 9:23pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper is expected to begin contract talks after the season, according to a source, and the Cowboys want to keep Cooper long term.

Huddle Up: Jerry Jones dropped a hint about a possible Cooper extension following his big performance on Thanksgiving, and Cooper does seem to be rejuvenated since the trade to the Dallas. He should have WR2 potential the rest of this season, and his long-term value would see a boost if he remains the go-to target for the Cowboys going forward.

Posted: 11/23/2018 7:46pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper is 'making a bid for his cash,' according to owner Jerry Jones.

Huddle Up: Cooper delivered a monster performance on Thanksgiving, and the Cowboys have reeled off three straight wins. The trade is working out for both parties, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see Jones try to lock up Cooper if the success continues. In the meantime, he looks like a WR2 once again.

Posted: 11/22/2018 5:28pm ET

Huddle Up: Able to score from anywhere on the field, Cooper looks rejuvenated in The Big D. There is obvious chemistry with Dak Prescott, and Cooper belongs in all traditional lineups against the New Orleans Saints in Week 13.

Posted: 11/18/2018 1:49pm ET

Huddle Up: Cooper has been targeted 23 times in the three games since joining the Cowboys and has become the team's top target in the passing game. He can be considered a No. 2 or No. 3 receiver in most leagues next week.

Posted: 11/15/2018 9:02am ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper has received 27.4 percent of the team's targets over his first two games with the squad. In Weeks 1-8 with the Oakland Raiders, Cooper's target share was 12.2 percent.

Huddle Up: It's been a good change of scenery for Cooper's fantasy owners, and next up is a matchup with the struggling Falcons secondary. Keep Cooper locked in as a WR2.

Posted: 11/11/2018 9:16pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper caught six of his 10 targets for 75 yards in Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Huddle Up: Cooper was among the best receivers in the league creating separation this season prior to his trade from the Oakland Raiders, and it has carried over to his new team. Of course, it didn't hurt his cause this week that the Eagles were shorthanded in the secondary. While Dak Prescott hasn't exactly been dazzling this season, he seems to have found a quick connection with Cooper, drawing 18 targets in two games. Look for more of the same and high-end WR3 production again in Week 11 versus the Atlanta Falcons.

Posted: 11/5/2018 8:39pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper finished with five receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown in the Week 9 loss against the Tennessee Titans in his team debut.

Huddle Up: Cooper, who was targeted eight times, is a great addition for a Dallas offense in desperate need of an injection. Once he understands the playbook more and jells with Dak Prescott better he is going to be a solid fantasy option again. He'll try and do more in Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Posted: 11/5/2018 12:40pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper and the Cowboys have already discussed a contract extension. Executive vice president Stephen Jones said he ultimately believes an extension will be achieved. 'We feel like he was worth the No. 1 [draft pick], and I think part of making it worth it is that we eventually sign him to an extension.'

Huddle Up: Jones is right, if they only have Cooper for half a season then it would be a waste of a first-round pick. How long the potential extension will be remains to be seen, but Cooper has the ability to be the Cowboys' next Dez Bryant for years to come if he plays to his full potential. How he is used tonight will be a good indication of how Dallas will use him the rest of the year.

Posted: 11/3/2018 6:57pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper will play a significant role when he makes his team debut against the Tennessee Titans in Week 9. 'We're not trying to ease him in,' offensive coordinator Scott Linehan said.

Huddle Up: Cooper should immediately become the go-to target for Dak Prescott. It remains to be seen if he can return to the WR2 form he showed in his first couple of years in Oakland, but Cooper has more than enough upside to use as a WR3 against Tennessee.

Posted: 10/26/2018 7:10pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper has been as good as advertised, according to owner Jerry Jones, and Jones expects Cooper to 'change the dynamics of the offense.'

Huddle Up: With a bye week to learn the offense, Cooper should be ready to handle a big workload when he makes his Dallas debut against the Tennessee Titans in Week 9. It's best to treat him as a WR3 for now, but the change of scenery could allow him to recapture the WR2 form he showed in his first two years in the league.

Posted: 10/25/2018 7:06pm ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper has the talent to be 'dynamic and unstoppable' going forward, according to Oakland Raiders QB Derek Carr.

Huddle Up: Cooper has struggled with drops and inconsistent play dating back to last season, but the change of scenery could be just what the doctor ordered. He will have WR2 potential as the go-to option in the Dallas passing attack.

Posted: 10/25/2018 7:55am ET

Dallas Cowboys WR Amari Cooper will have his second bye week in a row with his new team in Week 8.

Huddle Up: It hurts the fantasy owner to have a maximum of 15 games out of Cooper, but it could also serve as a positive. Cooper has two weeks to hit reset physically and a full week to learn the new playbook. His body should be as fresh as it has been all season. How well he plays will be hinged to how well he picks up the offense, but he's in a great spot to harness his WR2 potential.

Posted: 10/22/2018 12:18pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper is being traded to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a first-round draft pick, according to a source.

Huddle Up: Good on the Raiders for obtaining a first-round pick. Jordy Nelson and Martavis Bryant represent Oakland's starting wide receivers with Cooper out of the picture. If Bryant is still available he deserves to be a top waiver wire pickup this week. Look for Jalen Richard and Seth Roberts to be even more involved in the passing game going forward. Roberts is worth a roster spot in deeper leagues.

Posted: 10/22/2018 12:14pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper is being acquired by the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a first-round draft pick, according to a source.

Huddle Up: The Cowboys finally gain a much-needed offensive playmaker to help Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott. Cooper can't do any worse in Dallas than he was doing in Oakland. Targets shouldn't be an issue anymore, ideally, as he immediately becomes the Cowboys' best passing threat. On top of usage, Cooper has a favorable schedule remaining from a fantasy perspective.

Posted: 10/21/2018 7:40am ET

The Dallas Cowboys, Indianapolis Colts and Washington Redskins have reportedly expressed interest in Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper, according to league sources.

Huddle Up: The 24-year-old Cooper has been very inconsistent this year, with 22 receptions for 240 receiving yards and one touchdown through six games; however, 18 of those catches came in two contests against Cleveland and Denver. Although he's difficult to trust as a starting option in any fantasy format, he's worth hanging onto in deeper seasonal leagues because of his upside and the possibility that he could land with another club which could better utilize his talents.

Posted: 10/14/2018 11:46am ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper (ribs) was ruled out at halftime for the rest of Week 6 on Sunday, Oct. 14, after suffering a rib injury.

Huddle Up: Cooper's disappointing year didn't get any better overseas in London as he finishes the day with no catches on one target. It's getting tougher and tougher to justify rostering the under-performing wideout.

Posted: 10/14/2018 9:35am ET

Huddle Up: Along with Cooper's fantasy owners, it sounds like the Raiders are less than thrilled with the up-and-down former first-round pick, who has alternated poor and good weeks all season, with the latest being a one 10-yard reception outing in Week 5. Cooper has been hard to trust as a starter, but he's worth hanging on to the majority of leagues to see what develops given the talent and upside he's displayed.

Posted: 10/12/2018 6:29pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper needs to be featured more, according to quarterback Derek Carr, but Carr said he won't throw at Cooper just to reach a certain number of targets.

Huddle Up: Cooper has topped 100 yards in two of the five games this year but has been held under 20 yards in the other three. He's a boom-or-bust WR3 against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6.

Posted: 10/7/2018 8:12pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper caught his only target for 10 yards in a 26-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5.

Huddle Up: Cooper has topped 100 yards in two of the five games this year, but this was the third time has finished with less than 20 yards. He is an all-or-nothing WR3 at this point.

Posted: 10/4/2018 5:39pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper (foot) was limited at practice for the second consecutive day Thursday, Oct. 4.

Huddle Up: Cooper had his second big game of the campaign in last week's win versus the Browns, logging 128 yards and a touchdown on eight catches. He's probably healthy enough to stay in the lineup but his owners should be keeping tabs anyway. Cooper may be engaged in a high-scoring encounter this week in Los Angeles.

Posted: 10/3/2018 5:03pm ET

Huddle Up: Cooper has been a bit inconsistent this season with two 100-yard games and only 26 total yards in the other two games. He will be facing a solid Los Angeles Chargers defense this week but can still be a No. 2 or No. 3 receiver.

Posted: 9/30/2018 8:35pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper ended up with eight receptions, a season-high 128 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns.

Huddle Up: Cooper has alternated solid catch and yardage totals with absolute stinkers so far this season. That kind of consistency, or lack thereof, drives fantasy owners up a wall. He'll try to even out the production, or keep it up, in Week 5 against the Chargers.

Posted: 9/21/2018 11:21am ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper will likely be followed across the formation by Miami Dolphins CB Xavien Howard in Week, according to Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald.

Huddle Up: It's the right move for the Dolphins and a downgrade for Cooper, as Howard started to blossom during the second half of the season last year and has carried that over into 2018. Cooper needs to be considered a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 for this matchup. Howard's shadow coverage on Cooper should open up more targets for Jared Cook and possibly Jordy Nelson, however.

Posted: 9/16/2018 11:29pm ET

Huddle Up: Coming off a Week 1 no show this was exactly the kind of performance fantasy owners needed to see out of Cooper, whose 10 targets were more than double anyone else. On a team full of gray beards and reclamation projects, Cooper should be the guy. Today's gameplan suggests Gruden and Carr see that as well. Keep Cooper in the lineup as a WR2/WR3.

Posted: 9/10/2018 11:03pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper posted just one reception for nine yards on three targets in the Week 1 game against the Los Angeles Rams and he added one run for nine yards.

Huddle Up: There were no reports of any potential injury which might have been limiting him in some way, so it's uncertain why he wasn't a bigger part of the plan. It was expected with Michael Crabtree now in Baltimore, we'd see a lot more of the AC/DC (Derek Carr to Amari Cooper) connection. Perhaps they'll get it revved up in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos.

Posted: 5/30/2018 8:18pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper (hamstring) did not participate in practice Tuesday, May 29, because of the hamstring injury he suffered last week.

Huddle Up: Cooper probably will be limited for the rest of the offseason workouts so the team can make sure he is ready for training camp. He is coming off a disappointing 2017 season but will be the main option in the Raiders' passing game this upcoming season. He can be a No. 2 fantasy receiver in 2018.

Posted: 5/22/2018 1:00pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper (hamstring) left organized team activities early Tuesday, May 22, with a hamstring ailment, according to head coach Jon Gruden.

Huddle Up: This will need some monitoring, but it doesn't sound like the issue is overly concerning. Gruden has already said Cooper will be the focus of the offense in 2017. For now, Cooper has low-end WR1 to high-end WR2 appeal.

Posted: 4/23/2018 12:10pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper's fifth-year option was officially exercised Monday, April 23. His contract is now extended through 2019.

Huddle Up: Cooper is coming off a disappointing season, but his ceiling remains in low-end WR1 to high-end WR2 territory.

Posted: 4/22/2018 6:29pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper is expected to have his fifth-year option picked up soon, according to a source.

Huddle Up: After back-to-back 1,000-yard campaigns to begin his career, Cooper finished with just 680 yards last season. Injuries were apparently part of the problem, and as the clear go-to target in Oakland's passing game, Cooper could rebound in 2018 and recapture his WR2 form.

Posted: 4/20/2018 2:50pm ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper's agent has been in contact with the Raiders about Cooper's contract situation, according to general manager Reggie McKenzie. The Raiders will have to decide this offseason whether to exercise the fifth-year option in Cooper's contract.

Huddle Up: Cooper is coming off a disappointing 2017 season but can still be one of the better receivers in the NFL. He should be the top targets in the Raiders' passing game next season and has a chance to be a No. 2 fantasy receiver.

Posted: 4/2/2018 7:03pm ET

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden reiterated his plans on WR Amari Cooper being a central figure of the offense this season Monday, April 2, and went one step further by suggesting Cooper reminds him of a 'young Tim Brown.' 'I said it when he came out of Alabama, that he reminded me of a young Tim Brown. He has that type of game speed. He's elusive, and has a wide range of routes he can run. ? We're going to make him the main vein of our passing offense and move him around a lot,' Gruden said.

Huddle Up: Gruden has a history of getting production from his top wideout despite working with different types (Michael Clayton, Joey Galloway, Antonio Bryant, Keenan McCardell and Keyshawn Johnson during his time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers alone). With an injury-plagued season hopefully behind him, Cooper is a prime rebound candidate in 2018 and should be drafted as a low-end WR1.

Posted: 2/28/2018 10:12am ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper will be the focal point of Oakland's offense in 2018, according to head coach Jon Gruden.

Huddle Up: Cooper had a disappointing 2017 campaign, but his talent and potential are undeniable, as Gruden has apparently noticed. If Cooper can stay healthy and if Gruden's words come to fruition, there's no reason why Cooper can't be a No. 1 fantasy wide receiver.

Posted: 2/16/2018 11:08am ET

Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper battled an assortment of injuries all season, quarterback Derek Carr told Sirius XM Radio on Friday, Feb. 16. 'He would never say it to you, but I'll say it to you to have his back. That man was out there giving anything he could and, honestly, a lot of guys probably wouldn't have played with what he had,' Carr said.

Huddle Up: This should not come as a surprise, as he began the season with a leg/knee injury before dealing with an ankle issue and concussion late. Cooper played so far below the standard he set in his first two seasons that injuries almost had to play a major role in his disappointing season. Especially with Jon Gruden calling the shots on offense now, Cooper is a prime rebound candidate in 2018.
